The sTudenT publicaTions On The campus, including The VIOLET, The HEIGHTS NEWS, The MEDLEY The QUADRANGLE and The CRITICAL REVIEW, are all subsidized by The council. The various clubs and discussion groups are Organized under The guidance OT The council according TO a model consTiTuTiOn, and a good many are parTiaIly subsidized Through sTudenT Tunds. The ever-popular STudenT Council Dances, and such acTiviTies as The Freshman Duclcing and The Fordham Rally are sponsored and supervised direcTIy by The Council, Or by The ap- porTiOnmenT OT Tunds To The parTies concerned. The newly organized Lawrence House, an organizaTiOn whose Tine work has proved iTselT wOrThy OT exisTence, is backed Tinancially by The STudenT Council. The Glee Club, DebaTing Team, I.iTTle Symphony OrchesTra, Hall OT Fame Players, and a whole hosT OT special groups in The ArTs and Engineering colleges are supporTed by sTudenT Tunds apporTiOned by The Council. The above has made iT maniTesT ThaT The COuncil's work is Tar-reaching and impOrTanT.

BuT The Council goes Torward cOnTidenT OT The suppOrT OT The sTudenT body aT large. This year The problem beTOre The council has been an especially diTTi- cuIT One, and The body has worlced Towards The sOluTiOn OT The problems in such a manner as To meeT squarely and Tairly, and Open-mindedly, The many ..l. ..i. iusTiTied peTiTions which iT has received. A universiTy policy was adopTed aT The end OT lasT year, which meanT The TransTer Trom The STudenT Council BudgeT To The JoinT BudgeT oT The l-leighTs Colleges cerTain TaculTy salaries. This naTurally resulTed in a reducTion oT The STudenT AciTiviTies Fee Trom SI0.00 To 57.50. OsTensibly, This is noThing, buT in The reorganizaTion oT iTs Tinancial policy, The Council Tound iTselT some 5700.00 in debT To The Tour classes To whose Tunds iT conTribuTes money each year. This debT had been conTracTed in The previous year, and The presenT STudenT Council TelT iT iTs duTy, and moral obligaTion To repay iT in Tull. as quiclcly as possible. To repay This debf compleTely Trom The Tunds Talcen in aT 57.50 per person would necessiTaTe a paralyzing reducTion in The granTs To maior acTiviTies, and a compleTe disconTinuance oT appropriaTions Tor The many small clubs. Realizing Tully The Tool- ishness oT cuTTing down on appropriaTions Tor The large acTiviTies, and also believing ThaT small clubs really have a place on The campus and saTisTy a greaT need, The Council wenT beTore The sTudenT body in The various Chapels and aslced if iT would consenT To Tax iTselT an addiTional 5.50 per man only Tor This year. This was wholehearTedly agreed To by an undersTanding and sympaTheTic sTudenT body. ' Now wiTh an addiTional 5900.00 aT iTs disposal, The Council was able To supporT These smaller clubs. subsidize The big publicaTions as close as possible To The amounT peTiTioned Tor, and iniTiaTe a graduaTed plan oT repaymenT To The class dues Tunds, eTTecTive immediaTely. As Tar as possible, sTricT buT noT Toolish economy was pracTiced. The Council wenT over each iTem careTully, giving iT Tull consideraTion beTore passing on any proposal. Because oT This manner oT procedure, several iTems appeared incongruous wiTh The purpose oT The STudenT Council. One oT These was The salary oT The coach oT The DebaTing Team. The Council resolved noT To pay The salary oT The coach in The TuTure deeming iT under UniversiTy iurisdicTion, alThough iT will conTinue To supporT The Team iTselT. AnoTher iTem was The publicaTion oT The STUDENT DIRECTORY. This year The DIRECTORY will be published ioinTly by The Council and The adminisTraTion oT The l'leighTs Colleges. and iT is hoped ThaT in The TuTure iT will be Talcen over com- pleTely by The oTTicials oT The UniversiTy.

Upon soluTion OT iTs' Tiscal problem, The Council Turned Toward The revision oT iTs consTiTuTion. The old consTiTuTion oT The Council is a lengThy documenT, obsoleTe in many respecTs, and poorly organized. ln iTs presenT Torm iT is inadequaTe To cope wiTh The problems OT a changing and progressive sTudenT body. And so several meeTings oT The second semesTer were seT aside Tor The express purpose oT revising The consTiTuTion in order To produce a clear, concise, Tlexible documenT. The STudenT Council poinTs wiTh pride aT iTs successTul and able managemenT oT The STudenT Council Dances. ConTrary To The opinion ThaT These dances would drain The Treasury as They have done in The pasT Tew years, The aTTairs have been Tinancially clear all The way Through, as well as a social success. Donald Badner. chairman oT The Dance CommiTTee and Senior Class RepresenTaTive, capably and compeTenTly supervised all The TuncTions. The popular and insTrucTive Social Hygiene LecTures which were disconTinued This year have been discussed, and The Council has ioined wiTh The various groups in a successTul aTTempT To have Them reinsTaTed. The Peace Day Assembly has also been a subiecT oT discussion. The inTramural baslceTball Team which won The T-leighTs championship in The all-UniversiTy compeTiTion has been ouTTiTTed by The STudenT Council. OTF The campus, so To speak, The Council has also been acTive.

AT The presenT wriTing The Council is considering The proposiTion oT joining The American YouTh Congress.

UndergraduaTe Engineering CommiTTee HE UndergraduaTe Engineering CommiTTee is an organizaTion oT The engineering sTudenT body whose purposes are To TurTher sTudenT-TaculTy relaTions in The college, and To raise The sTandards oT The UniversiTy To a higher level. To obTain These ends, This council sponsors several aTTairs each year. The mosT imporTanT oT These is The Techniirolic-The engineering annual dance, aT which TaculTy, alumni, and undergrad- uaTe gaTher socially. ln The spring OT The year, The Council has iTs annual Engineering DemonsTraTion Day. AT This Time, a selecTed group oT prospecTive sTudenTs Trom The various schools gaTher here To learn whaT The engineering school has To oTTer Them as a proTession.

WiTh The dedicaTion oT Lawrence House early in OcTober as a cenTer Tor sTudenT acTiviTy Tor The HeighTs campus, iT was immediaTely essenTial ThaT The building be broughT To The close aTTenTion oT The enTire sTudenT body, and if Tigures can be deemed accuraTe TuTure indi- caTors, iT would appear ThaT The Task was accomplished wiTh greaT success. Under The direcTion oT Marvin Jay Raslcin, sTudenT direcTor, Harry Hinclc, ad- viser, and P. A. PorTeous, hosT, Lawrence House became The scene oT some Two hundred club meeTings, TwenTy all-HeighTs aTTairs, Tive inTercollegiaTe de- baTes, and an innumerable group oT oTher variegaTed exTra-curricular acTivi- Ties. BUT iT was noT in numbers alone ThaT The organizaTion and The house proved iTs worTh, Tor iT undoubTedly Tilled The need Tor a meeTing place where sTudenTs and TaculTy members could Talk over The pressing problems in an aTmosphere oT congenial easiness, over The cocoa cups or The luncheon Table. lT was here ThaT The chieT work was accomplished by The STudenT-FaculTy Rela- Tions CommiTTee which Took a sTep Tar down The paTh oT beTTer sTudenT and TaculTy undersTanding. The commiTTee was headed by RoberT Roy Dann, who represenTed The sTudenTs, and AssisTanT Dean William Bush Baer, who repre- senTed The TaculTy7 iT inauguraTed The series oT luncheons aT which The sTudenT and TaculTy men congregaTed. AlmosT every TaculTy man on The campus as well as almosT all inTeresTed sTudenTs aTTended one oT The luncheons during The course OT The pasT year. AssisTing Dann on The commiTTee were RoberT RaT- ner, Lawrence Zirinsky, Jesse C. Goodwin, and HerberT J. Brown. The Forum CommiTTee, under The guidance oT Carl Rachlin, endeavored fo bring various dignifaries in fhe polifical, social and business worlds before fhe sfu- denf body. lfs mosf successful venfure was ifs polifical symposium held a few days before elecfion, lasf November. Before an enfhusiasfic sfudenf body, leaders of fhe maior parfies expounded fhe merifs of fheir candidafes. George lvloins, a Republican leader, exfolled 'rhe merifs of Alfred M. Landon: George Minor, candidafe for Gov- ernor, praised fhe Communisf cause, Harry Laidler represenfed fhe Socialisf Parfy, while Louis Waldman of fhe American Labor Parfy favored fhe re-elecfion of Presidenf Roosevelf. Following fhe formal speeches a general discussion occurred, af which fime various sfudenf and faculfy opinions were aired. lmporfanf members of fhis comrniffee were Irving Panzer, Daniel Hofferf, Walfer Feldesman, Vicfor Teich and Leslie Fiedler. Because of ifs physical capacify as a meefing place for campus gafherings, Law- rence House insfifufed a commiffee fo work wifh fhe several clubs in planning programs and in general work which would bring fhe campus organizafions info closer confacf wifh fhe House. Two separafe sub-commiffees were formed, one for fhe Arfs College and fhe ofher for fhe College of Engineering. Af fhe head of fhe former was Jean Fuersf and af 'rhe helm of fhe laffer, James Conforfi. Through fhe efforfs of fhese fwo men, Lawrence House quickly became fhe headquarfers for all club and social affairs: offenfimes six or eighf meefings wenf off on fhe same day. ln fhis connecfion, promi- nenf speakers from all walks of life were fhe guesfs of fhe various groups as were various college debafing feams whose represenfafives rnef The Varsify and Freshman squads. Colgafe, Bosfon U., Holy Cross were among fhose who debafed before en- fhusiasfic audiences in fhe main room of fhe Lawrence House. For fhe firsf fime, foo, fwo new groups became allied wifh fhe Lawrence House Cornmiffee. They were fhe Residence Bureau and Employmenf Bureau. The former under fhe direcfion of Joshua Levine and Frank Hubbard ably cared for fhe problem of securing suiTable residences Tor Those ouT-oT-Town sTudenTs who did noT live in The dor- miTories. Through Their eTTorTs some hundred men were puT up aT houses in The viciniTy. The EmploymenT Bureau, led by RoberT Heiberg, AssociaTe Supervisor, and Max O. Funlc as assisTanT, was esTablished To aid HeighTs sTudenTs To secure parT Time employ- menT To aid in deTraying oT college expenses. Many oT The leading deparTmenT sTores in The ciTy were conTacTed and provided jobs Tor sTudenTs. The worlc oT These Two bureaus has been so successTul ThaT iT is expecTed ThaT They will be made permanenT TeaTures oT The House organizaTion. For The second consecuTive year, The LiTTle TheaTre Ticl4eT Group was aTTiliaTed wirh Lawrence House as a sub-commiTTee. Again direcTed by William H. Lieberson, Irving Sunshine, and Murray KoTT, The group greaTly expanded iTs Tield in obTaining cuT-raTe TiclQeTs Tor New Yorlc's TheaTrical aTTracTions. This year Carnegie and Town Hall concerTs were added To The long lisT oT shows whose TiclceTs were handled by The Bu eau. Again The lVleTropoliTan Opera House saw an inTlux oT sTudenTs who had se- cured reduced raTes Through The LiTTle TheaTre Ticl4eT Group. This year, Too, a large number oT TaculTy members parToolc oT This excellenT service, To malce The year a ban- ner one. Aside Trom These sTudenT services, Lawrence House iTselT presenTed several Tea- Tures which iT hopes will become annual TeaTures on The HeighTs campus. Thus The re- cepTion Tor The new Freshman Class run in SepTember and one Tor The February-Sep- Tember groups were aTTempTed wiTh greaT success. The Hobby Show run by Lionel Ascher, The ChrisTmas ParTy and The exTensive Spring program were parTs oT This augmenTed agenda oT evenTs. WiTh iTs TirsT season successTully behind iT, Lawrence House looks Toward nexT year wiTh The realizaTion ThaT iT is rapidly achieving iTs main purpose-becoming The sTudenT acTiviTy cenTer Tor The HeighTs Campus. Besides being The main cenTer oT sTudenT acTiviTy This year, Lawrence House was used as The welcoming place and recepTion room Tor almosT every oTher organizaTion aTTiliaTed in any way wiTh The UniversiTy. Among such groups were The Women's Auxiliary, WesTchesTer Alumni Club and The lnTerscholasTic Press ConTerence. AT The laTTer, represenTaTives Trom various high school newspapers convened Tor Two days and The Lawrence House served as a very pleasanT meeTing and recepTion cenTer. The papers Trom each school were eaxmined and iudged, and prizes were awarded To The besT ones. A very enjoyable aTTernoon was senT aT Lawrence House by The wives oT some oT The TaculTy members, when They held a Tea There. This is someThing new on The campus, buT someThing helpTul in bringing abouT a closer uniTy oT all persons connecTed wiTh N. Y. U. A new proposal is now being considered To keep Lawrence House open Tor The summer so ThaT The February-SepTember sTudenTs may have Tull opporTuniTy To use The TaciliTies oT The house inasmuch as mosTly all oTher campus acTiviTies, clubs, aThleTics, publicaTions, eTc., have sTopped Tor ThaT Time. This proposal will make iT easier Tor The Freshmen To geT acguainTed, Torm Their own summer clubs and prepare Themselves Tor The acTive campus life ThaT sTarTs in The Tall. AnoTher excellenT proposal was The TormaTion oT a summer newspaper Tor These Freshmen, who could use The oTTices and oTher equipmenT oT The HeighTs News. The scope oT Lawrence House acTiviTy is widening ouT conTinually, so ThaT iT really Takes in everyThing ThaT concerns sTudenTs, TaculTy, alumni and oTher associaTed groups. Carli Blanlce Alfred L.

WhiTford Dolson HeighTs News COLLEGIATE newspaper has as iTs duTy The mirroring oT The ThoughTs and acTiviTies OT iTs campus, and This aim The HeighTs News achieved more successfully This year Than any oTher since iTs founding in I933. IT main- Tained iTs sTaTus as an eighT-page, Tri-weelcly publicaTion, increased iTs publi- caTion and ads, and covered a wider range oT news Than ever beTore. Under The guidance oT J. WhiTTord Dolson, ediTor-in-chieT, and Howard R. Hein, managing ediTor, The ediTorial policy was disTinguished Tor iTs cru- sading spiriT and inTeresT-sTirring provocaTiveness. During The year a cam- paign was seT under way To honor The former chancellor oT New York Univer- siTy. Henry MiTchell Maccraclcen, who was among The ToremosT men who builT The UniversiTy HeighTs, by renaming GraduaTe Hall as MacCraclcen Hall. ATTer an inTensive campaign The UniversiTy Council gave iTs consenT and a daTe was seT Tor The ceremony. A lengThy conTroversy was carried on wiTh The American STudenT Union and a number oT excellenT suggesTions were oTFered Tor The broadening oT The scope of ThaT organizaTion. In an endeavor To presenT boTh sides of The argu- menT, Mr. Dolson allowed The A. S. U. an enTire page To permiT Them To reTuTe his charges. OTher campaigns conducTed during The year were: The TighT againsT TiclceT Thugs aT The Time oT The Fordham game, The supporT OT The TiTTy-cenT STudenT Council Tee, and The consTrucTive criTicism aimed aT creaT- ing a Truly imporTanT STudenT CenTer aT The Lawrence House.

An exTremely eTTicienT News Board was The chieT TacTor in The marked improvemenT oT news coverage.

Philip Friedland and STephen Fischer, NighT EdiTors, made possible The smooTh operaTion oT The sTaTT by Their equi- Table disTribuTion oT prinT shop duTy. An AssociaTe Board which sTarTed wiTh TourTeen men and was cuT down To six also proved invaluable. Such men as Irving R.

Regular columns such as books, TheaTer, Radio, Music and Dress Parade, were insTiTuTed, each wiTh a parTicuIar cIienTeIe OT iTs own. SuppIemenTary columns, such as Swing, Cinema, The Pen POinTs, Today in N. Y. U. HisTOry, and The Slide Rule, were also included Trom Time To Time. The IaTTer was an engi- neering TeaTure, an innovaTiOn which supplied a long-TeI+ need in The Engi- neering sTudenT body Tor some deparTmenT To dramafize and review The Technical work OT ThaT school. VioleT Rays, unlike iTs disconTinuaTiOn in Feb- ruary, served as an OuTIeT Tor sTudenT IiTerary TaIenT, creaTive impulses and peT irks. Among ,The essays cOnTribuTed were The UNITED FRONT, by Daniel Franklin, A RENDEZVOUS WITH DESTINY by RoberT Davis, JOHN OF BOHEMIA by Harold S. Nemser, ROOSEVELT IS FOR YOUTH by STanIey OewirTz, CAMPUS POLITICAL GROUPS by Marcus SmiTh, THE MEEHAN ERROR by OusTave RichTer. Also such TiTIes could be Tound as LOVE OF COUNTRY, CITY VERSUS COUNTRY, THE FIRST THANKSOIVINO, and FRANCE MEANS FREEDOM. In shorT, a deTermined aTTempT was made TO have The sTudenTs Themselves play a parT in The living pOrTrayaI OT The shiTTing mosaic OT undergraduaTe IiTe and acTiviTy. Several experimenTs were Tried during The course OT The year including a club page, an Inquiring ReporTers Column, and a series OT commenTs called One Man's Opinion. The IaTTer was an aTTempT TO cOrreIaTe happenings in The world aT large wiTh The siTuaTion On college campuses. The series OT sex IecTures which were so popular in Tormer years were also broughT back Through The eTTOrTs OT The paper, and became an imporTanT TacTor in exTra-curricular acTiviTies. These Two achievemenTs were an indica- Tion OT The social mindedness OT This year's news policy, and OT The eTTorT ThaT was made noT only To acquainT sTudenTs OT whaT was going on buT TO make Them aware OT Their share in Those evenTs. 3 Several experimenTs were also carried ouT in The course oT The year, chieT among which was The PresidenTial Poll beTore elecTion day. ATTer a surpris- ingly large amounT oT baIIo+s were casT and a Tremendous amounT oT enThu- siasm aroused, a reTurn came in and proved an accuraTe omen oT whaT laTer Took place. PresidenT RoosevelT won by a large margin in The sTudenT voTing and Tinished iusT behind his rival in The TaculTy counT. The work oT The HeighTs News during The pasT year mighT besT be summed up by saying ThaT iT seT ouT To perTorm one primary TuncTion-ThaT oT being a newspaper-and iT suc- ceeded in a noTeworThy manner. The ediTorial policy oT The managing board This year sTimulaTed an unusual amounT oT criTicism on The campus. The quesTion oT wheTher The personal loelieTs oT The ediTor could encompass more Than The ediTorial page inciTed much commenT Trom The elemenTs on The campus which were noT in accordance wiTh The policies oT The board. BuT The year was an exTremely delicaTe one, and a hard one Tor The ediTor oT any publicaTion which would deal wiTh naTional conTroversies or would involve iTselT in conTroversial maTTers which dealT wiTh The poliTical and social condiTions. Really, The ediTorial policy oT The paper musT on The whole be commended. Tor The newspaper was remark- ably Tree Trom any TronT-page ediTorializing excepT in a Tew noTorious insTances. lT is only To be expecTed ThaT an inTeIIigen+ ediTor would demand ThaT his personal belieTs be permiTTed To permeaTe The Type maTTer oT his publicaTion. BuT The adverse commenT came Tor The mosT parT Trom The more sensiTive elemenTs on The campus. Remarkable was The painTul sTriTe which ensued beTween several members oT The STudenT Council and The ediTorial board oT The publicaTion over The poll To deTermine campus senTimenT on The peace sTrilce.

For The TirsT Time in iTs hisTory, The VioleT was noT given a large enough appropriaTion by The STudenT Council To cover iTs prinTing cosTs. The board TelT ThaT The inabiliTy oT The Council To aTTord a large appropriaTion should noT inTerTere wiTh The size or qualiTy OT The book iTselT. So early in The monThs oT SepTember and OcTober, a business sTaTT was organized.

The sTaTT proved To The Council ThaT The handicap was noT enough To discourage iT Trom Turning ouT a Tine and large producTion. -y -fifihnl YV Y gn .. BUT Tinances were noT The only worries oT The Board. A Tremendous amounT oT liTerary maTerial had To be assigned, compiled and ediTed. Under The leadership oT NorberT Aclier, The LiTerary EdiTor, who worked wiTh The assisTance oT STanley C5ewirTz as Managing EdiTor, The maTerial was compiled and ediTed in The shorTesT Time in The hisTory oT VioleT PublicaTions. RoberT S. RaTner, Richard Brodie, and Louis H. SalcoTslcy, in addiTion To Jean S. FuersT, Leslie Fiedler and HerberT J. Brown worked hand in hand wiTh Aclcer To accomplish This record. A Perhaps The mosT Tormidable problem in The ediTing oT The VioleT was securing a man able enough To Taclcle The diTTiculT Taslcs OT compiling The FaculTy and AdminisTraTion and The Senior SecTions. Such a Taslc was nobly and Thoroughly perTormed by Donald Badner wiTh The assisTance oT BerThold ZoTTer. The mosT Thanlcless iob on The Managing Board is The posiTion which was held by Irving R. ShoheT, The PhoTography EdiTor. ShoheT direcTed The phoTography sTaTT which issued passes To The Seniors, and arranged Tor The phoTographing oT all The groups and organizaTions on The campus. Moreover, This year The sTaTT was burdened wiTh addiTional worlc, Tor many more indi- vidual picTures had To be Taken oT The publicaTion sTaTTs, The STudenT Council, and oT The new heads oT The TaculTy and adminisTraTion. ShoheT was assisTed by The AssisTanT PhoTography EdiTors, ArThur SmiThline and Joseph TiTTany. and The PhoTography Board oT Melville Levy, Douglas MacDonald, SeTh Lipsky, Lionel Asher, ZygmonT Jaros, Al BursTein, Joseph Zehnleger, Abraham Abrams, Shepard BoneparTh, and Aaron ApTelberg. FaculTy CooperaTion This year sTimulaTed The sTaTT To appreciaTion oT The eTTorTs oT The men involved. Mr. Richard D. Mallery, TaculTy adviser oT The boolc, was helpTul wiTh his advice on malce-up and wiTh his prooTreading oT The copy in The book. Dr. Edward GaspariTsch's advice concerning Tinances was noT only invaluable, buT necessary. However, no Thanlcs would suTTice To ex- press The appreciaTion oT The sTaTT To ProTessor Jesse CarpenTer oT The PoliTi- cal Science DeparTmenT Tor his Tremendous conTribuTion: virTually every view oT The campus used in The I937 VioleT was his, as well as mosT oT The picTures oT TaculTy members and The picTures OT The TaculTy miracle play. His work was indeed a TribuTe To The spiriT oT cooperaTion. Philip Hahn, SporTs EdiTor, perTormed his Tasli oT organizing The marerial Tor The sporTs secTion wiTh a quieT Thoroughness.

The TirsT issue oT The Medley was eagerly awaiTed by The Campus To see whaT LiTTle Willie H.

The issue which appeared in The early parT oT The second week in OcTober and which was pracTically puT ouT by The ediTor himselT, more Than jusTiTied The expecTaTions oT The school. The policy was so diTTerenT Trom ThaT oT The pasT ThaT Mr. Lieberson was rewarded Tor his eTTorTs wiTh an inviTaTion To The Dean's oTTice. There was very liTTle Tor The Dean To say in Tace oT The general approval oT The sTudenT body. The ouTsTanding characTerisTic OT The new Medley was iTs risque Tinge. This was a radical deparTure Trom The sTaid and unTunny Medleys oT The pre- ceding years. The well-wriTTen buT ouT oT place FaculTy ProTiles and serious ediTorials were replaced by a new column, Hoi Polloi, which dealT wiTh Campus gossip and an inTormal amusing ediTorial enTiTled EdiTors Ego. BoTh oT These new TeaTures were excepTionally well received, especially The Hoi Polloi column which creaTed a greaT deal oT commenT. Those sTudenTs whose names appeared in The column were insulTed, buT noT halT as much as Those whose names weren'T presenT. ,, ..,.. ..i The success oT The TirsT issue warranTed The TuITiIImenT oT Willie Lieber- son's pIan oT doubling The number oT issues oT Medley which meanT eighT issues, one a monTh, insTead OT The cusTomary Tour. Remarkable in iTseIT is ThaT each issue appeared on The scheduled Time. The OcTober issue sTarTed OTT on The righT TooT wiTh a TooTbaII cover by Harold Nemser which was an aTTracTion in iTseIT. The well-Iilqed Uncle Bunny columns oT Three years ago were resumed once more and creaTed a sensaTion in iTs subTIeTies on woman's Tashions. Following This came The Medling secTion, which is similar To Talk oT The Town in The NEW YORKER. The capTion under The TronTispiece, LeT's go down To The river and slug raTs, became a popular expression. The Two TeaTure arTicles were Diary oT an AmbiTious Freshman by The ediTor, and a Take-oTI on The Dean OT STudies' oTTice by STephen WoIT. The real highlighT oT The issue was The poem abouT TI-IE GIRL FROM WOQSTER. One monTh IaTer, on November I5, The Medley made iTs second appear- ance and surpassed The sTandard iT had seT in The previous issue. Among The numerous carToons The mosT ouTsTanding were Those by Cy Biscardi and Joe TiTTany whose Kodalc carToon Topped The Tield. Among The TeaTures was an- oTher in The series oT Lieberson's Broadway Noblemenf' This Time a Talce-OTT on a boxing manager, and The cenTerspread which was arranged in The Torm oT a TombsTone under which was buried all The She Was Only gags ThaT would TiT. Medley has always had one oT The besT and mosT compleTe TheaTre secTions, buT This year This secTion was made even more saTisTacTory by The use oT phoTographs Trom scenes oT The plays reviewed. The ChrisTmas issue had perhaps one oTTThe besT covers in The counTry. IT was a briIIianTIy drawn and coIorTuIIy decoraTive conTribuTion by Joseph TiTTany, arT ediTor. The TeaTure sTory oT The issue was conTribuTed by MarTin Roger Lieberson, broTher OT The ediTor, who, aIThough he doesn'T aTTend The school, proved a greaT help wiTh his numerous conTribuTions. The TiTle oT The sTory was A Modern ChrisTmas Carol and is Typical oT The proTessionaI work done by The auThor under a diTTerenT name. The TourTh issue appeared iusT beTore The exams and had as iTs cover, appropriaTely enough, a Tacsimile oT an exam boolc. The enTire issue was devoTed To a screamingly Tunny burlesque oT The HeighTs' publica- Tions which included a Tour-page spread on The I'leighTs News prinTed upon The regular news paper, The VioleT and The CriTicaI Review, and even The quadrangle were made The vicTims oT The Quaigish issue.

The TirsT issue oT The second semesTer appeared in The middle oT February and TeaTured Quaigh's Toreclosure on New Yorlc UniversiTy. The Quaigh cur- riculum Tor The Colleges oT ArTs and Pure Science and some Engineers was given in deTail. A message Trom The supposedly new.Dean opened The issue. The March issue celebraTed The TwenTy-TiTTh year oT MEDLEY. IT con- Tained a cavalcade oT humor beginning wiTh l9I3 issues and marched Through The subseguenT years. The issue was doubly inTeresTing Tor noT only did iT con- Tain The presenT-day TeaTures buT also showed how Tar The magazine had progressed and changed since iTs incepTion by The Eucleian SocieTy. The car- Toons were Taken chieTly Trom Medley originally drawn by Riol Tor The Feb- ruary issue in I933. The April and May issues come ouT aTTer The VioleT goes To press, buT we Teel cerTain ThaT They will prove To be on a par wiTh Their successTul prede- cessors. ParT oT The success oT This year's Medley was due To The conscienTious eTTorTs and cooperaTion William l-l. Lieberson received Trom The managing ediTor, STephen L. WolT and The eTTervescenT Business Manager, Irving M. Kram, whose diligenT work made The eighT' issues possible. The liTerary sTaTT oT The Medley was made up oT abouT eighT members oT whom William Grossman was The chief campus conTribuTor. Besides wriTing Medlings, Will handed in quiTe a Tew shorT sTories which The ediTor handed righT back To him. JusTin Golenbock was The chieT prooT reader Tor The sTaTT. Norman Molosholc perused The daily newspapers Tor The Medley in hopes oT Tinding some glaring errors which could be played up buT Tound The l-leighTs News was a consTanT source Tor The Medley. Jaclc Shapiro wanTecl To be lisTed among The liTerary sTaTT, buT he really was a beTTer business man. Jaclc did help as a prooTreader and sTooge. Na+ Eisenberg was anoTher member who was always promising To wriTe his greaT masTerpiece Tomorrow. NaT did a good iob, however, oT licking sTamps as an assisTanT To The exchange ediTor. MarTin R. Lieberson, Saul Miller and Bernie Miller Tormed an ouTside TriumveraTe whose help was deeply appreciaTed by The Medley. MarTin was The chieT TeaTure wriTer besides conTribuTing a Tew very Tunny carToons. The Miller Treres were responsible Tor mosT oT The new iolces, especially The risque ones. The arT sTaTT was headed by Joseph TiTFany, arT ediTor. AssisTing him were Cy Biscardi, who Tried To puT PeTTy To shame lwe only said Triedi, and Harold S. Nemser, who also had The posiTion oT exchange ediTor and who was anoTher oT The chieT carToonisTs and illusTraTors. The very gossipy and Teared Hoi Polloi column was under The guidance of Marvin Raslcin, who doubled as sTaTT ianiTor. J. WhiTTord Dolson was The man guilTy oT The Omnes column. lrwin SchoTTman made a very capable oTFice manager and did his besT To lceep The sTaTT lunaTics in Their own sTraighT iaclceTs. RoberT Roy Dann was TeaTures ediTorg his duTy was To bear The brunT and blame when Li++le Willie wenT inTo The Dean. Harry Kaplan was campus ediTor: his conTribuTion To Medley was living in Gould Hall. The Business STaTF of Irving Kram was headed by Allan HoTiman who was his business asso- ciaTe. Among Those who ran around and did noT geT ads were AlTred Palca, Douglas Macdonald, Irving Sneagles Bauling, Shep BonaparT and Eddie FiTzgerald. The circulaTors OT The book were Woodrow H. Lawn, Edward Lessinger, Melville Levy, Melvin Paul, KenneTh S. KarpT, NorberT Aclcer, and AI LeviTT. Medley humor was noT associaTed merely wiTh a publicaTion This year, Tor iT maniTesTed iTselT in many oTher ways. For example, near The publicaTion Time oT The nexT To lasT issue, one oT The Freshmen, NaT Eisenberg, was Torced To roam The sacred porTals oT Lawrence House minus his panTaloons buT plus a wide smile oT embarrassmenT: medley humor also was maniTesTed in ham sandwiches in TaculTy mail boxes and conferences wiTh The dean, noT To menTion The escapades oT April TirsT. The ever-recurring spiriT oT animosiTy which exisTed beTween The various publicaTions on The HeighTs campus years ago disappeared and in iTs place There exisTed a cooperaTive spiriT greaTer Than aT any Time in The pasT.

Coached by Ormand John Drake, who came To New York UniversiTy This year Trom Michigan STaTe To aid The boys in prepa- raTion, The Team sailed Through a heavy schedule in quick and Tine Tashion. The new coach pursued a policy unlike ThaT OT The Tormer coach in enlarging The size OT his squad oT Sophomores.

OTher members oT The Team who were acTive in The schedule This year were l-lerberT Brown, Laurence LusTig, Joseph Sonnenreich, Abraham Tannenbaum, Murray NeiTlich, William STark, Bruce l-lecker and Murray Segal. The l-leighTs had The privilege, Tor The TirsT Time in iTs hisTory, oT hearing Two varsiTy debaTes on The campus iTselT.

The squad won one oT iTs Two decision deba+es. The capTains coached The Freshman debaTe squad This year. On The squad were Barry Levin, John RoberTs, Ed Seiden, Nevin Lowenfeld, Carl l-lechT and JusTin Golenblock. The debaTing Team was, This year, as in The pasT, supporTed by Tunds 'appropriaTed by The councils oT The various schools composing The UniversiTy. Accordingly, The major Trips which The Team made were clisTribuTed To Those schools. There was a suggesTion made aT The beginning oT The school year ThaT The salary oT The debaTe coach be paid ouT OT an all-UniversiTy budgeT raTher Than ouT oT sTudenT acTiviTy Tunds, since The coach's work encompasses in scope all The schools oT New York UniversiTy. The relaTion oT The debaTing Team To The UniversiTy as an agency Tor publiciTy is noT always Tully appreciaTed. The admissions oTFice makes a deTiniTe appeal To encourage The enTry and applicaTion oT more ouT-oT- Town sTudenTs.

The Casf in a Tense Scene from Wings Over Europe The Hall OT Fame Players HE Hall oT Fame Players, This year, conTinued in Their role as an invenTive, experimenTal TheaTre group. Their program was marked in The TirsT place, by Two successTul and original producTions, and in The second place, by Two noTable depar- Tures Trom The HeighTs TheaTrical cusTOm. One OT The innOvaTions was embodied in The TirsT presenTaTiOn OT The year. For many seasons The Players had carried on Their work in The LiTTle TheaTre in Gould Hall. lTs audiTorium was Tar Too small, iTs sTage, in iTs diminuTiveness, was a consTanT chal- lenge To boTh acTor and Technicians. ln spiTe OT These cliTTiculTies, or because OT Them, The Players had succeeded in cOnTriving many inTeresTing and Thoroughly successTul prOducTiOns. They had repeaTedly Triumphed over Their surroundings. For The TirsT presenTaTiOn OT This year, however, The group, in experimenTal mood, decided To Trans- Ter iTs acTiviTies To a new scene. The chapel oT Gould Memorial Library, To which The Temporary removal was made presenTed many new advanTages, buT many new impedimenTs as well. The Trick was To wriTe a show in which The scene was laid in The chapel iTselT, Thereby eliminaTing The necessiTy Tor any arTiTicial seTTings. This was accomplished by Mr. Henry Howard, direcTOr OT The Hall OT Fame Players, who made an adapTaTiOn OT Dracula, The Tamous novel and play by Bram STOlcer. The revised version called Dracula aT The HeighTs, TransTerrecl The scene OT The acTion Trom iTs original Transyl- vania To The HeighTs campus, and parTicularly, To The chapel. ln addiTiOn, iT inTro- duced a comedy elemenT and a collegiaTe angle involving Fordham UniversiTyg and Tinally iT provided Tor a musical background OT boTh organ and chorus. The casT direcTed by Mr. Howard, included Irving Israel in The TiTle role. and Harold Wax, HerberT Brown, and Eugene Milner in The chieT supporTing parTs. Music was provided by The Alumni Glee Club under The direcTion oT ProT. Allired M. Green- Tield, and ingenious lighTing eTTecTs were conTrived by The Technical crew under The supervision oT Mr. Dean EarnsworTh. The second innovaTion oT The year in The acTiviTies oT The Hall oT Eame Players had To do wiTh The organizaTion and direcTion oT The group. AT The end oT The TirsT semesTer, Mr. Howard appoinTed a commiTTee OT Tour sTudenTs, To which Tour more were subsequenTly elecTed, who assumed compleTe charge oT The work oT The organ- izaTion, There were HerberT Brown, Edward Dewender, Raphael Gold, Irving Israel, Lionel Kaplan, Eugene Milner, ElTon SmiTh, and Harold Wax. Under This new scheme, The Hall oT Fame Players, as Their TirsT venTure, embarked upon a producTion oT The Tormer TheaTre Guild success, He Who GeTs Slapped, by The Russian playrighT, Andreyev. AcTed by a compeTenT company under The di- recTion oT ElTon SmiTh, and played againsT a sTriking background, The group, back once more in iTs LiTTle TheaTre, achieved anoTher laudable success. The acTiviTy oT The Thespians in The period beTween maior producTions did noT cease. The Technical crew conTinued iTs pracTice oT holding weekly meeTings in which iT carried on The experirnenTaTion under Mr. FarnsworTh's direcTion. The meThods used were some oT Those pracTiced by The acTors oT The Moscow ArT TheaTre and oTher imporTanT companies in America and Europe. Underlying all The eTTorTs oT The Hall oT Eame Players was The desire To esTablish a well-kniT and clearly deTined TheaTrical organizaTion on The HeighTs campus. This does noT mean, oT course, ThaT new recruiTs were noT wecome. New recruiTs were always welcome, buT They were expecTed To show a conTinued and consisTenT inTeresT in The work oT The LiTTle TheaTre. The Tollowing OT This policy had excellenT resulTs, and The achievemenTs oT The socieTy reached a high level. The LiTTle Symphony N iTs less Than Ten years oT exisTence The l-leighTs LiTTle Symphony has gone Through more imporTanT organic changes in Torm and consTiTuTion Than perhaps any oTher organizaTion on The Campus. Beginning in I929 wiTh a group OT TiTTeen enThusiasTic lovers oT music, a sTring orchesTra gradually grew under The direcTion oT lviaurel Hunlcins. Wind insTrumenTs were added To round ouT in Tine Tashion a musical organi- zaTion which played excellenT music and played iT well. The concerT masTer oT The LiTTle Symphony is l-larold Rosenweigg Frank KaTzenberg is The manager. In pasT years The emphasis in The reperToire OT The I-leighTs Symphony has been deTiniTely on Bach. This year The program was much more widely diversiTied Than iT has been hereToTore. Among The numbers TeaTured during The year were The OverTure To Wagner's Tannhaiiser, LiszT's Second Hungarian Rhapsody, Die Fledermaus by STrauss, and The FirsT and Third WalTzes Trorn SmeTana's BarTerecI Bride. All These numbers were performed, besides oThers, aT every concerT during The year. The l'leighTs Symphony oT ThirTy pieces was augmenTed by a similar number oT lvlanhaTTan College sTudenTs Tor a series oT Two concerTs given in The middle oT March, one con- cerT in our own chapel beTore a maioriTy oT The sTudenT body and The oTher beTore an assembly oT ManhaTTan sTudenTs aT lVlanhaTTan. In addiTion To These concerTs, There was a Third, given by The I-leighTs uniT alone, early in May. The perTormances oT boTh The HeighTs-lvlanhaTTan combinaTion and oT The l-leighTs uniT alone were graTiTying To The mosT criTical among The audience. To round ouT The year in splendid Tashion, The LiTTle Symphony joined wiTh The Glee Clubs, VarsiTy, Alumni, and FaculTy-in rendering a Tine concerT. The Band HE UniversiTy Band, Tor The TirsT Time in years, accompanied The TooTball Team To Toreign TerriTory.

The ToremosT aim oT The organizaTion is To sTimulaTe inTeresT in French culTure and liTeraTure. FrequenT n'?'eeTings are held by The SocieTy in order ThaT This purpose may be TurThered To The TullesT degree. As French is spoken exclusively aT all meeTings excepT Those perTaining To business, The members are aTTorded an excellenT opporTu- niTy To learn To converse in French. Members oT The TaculTy deliver TrequenT addresses dealing wiTh subiecTs in which The members are inTeresTed. ProTessor l-leaTon gave a discourse on The CulTure oT Lorrainesf' and ProTessor Fales, one on Renan and His Times. STudenT members likewise gave shorT addresses on various subiecTs. AT The conclusion oT each Talk, an inTormal discussion Takes place. ln addiTion To The regular round oT meeTings, The SocieTe Francaise ran many social aTTairs. lvlonThly dances were held aT Lawrence House To which members oT The French SocieTy oT l'lunTer College were inviTed.
